About this item
Originally for violin and piano, Robert D. McCashin has done an outstanding job of making the Largo and Allegro from Telemann’s Sonata in G accessible to string orchestras. The opening movement offers beautiful and lush harmonic content with solo lines trading between the upper and lower string voices. The Allegro includes interesting and independent lines for all instruments, providing a substantive musical experience for each member of the ensemble.

Composer
Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767)
Georg Philipp Telemann (14 March 1681 – 25 June 1767) was a German Baroque composer and multi-instrumentalist. Almost completely self-taught in music, he became a composer against his family's wishes. After studying in Magdeburg, Zellerfeld, and Hildesheim, Telemann entered the University of Leipzig to study law, but eventually settled on a career in music. He held important positions in Leipzig, Żary, Eisenach, and Frankfurt before settling in Hamburg in 1721, where he became musical director of the city's five main churches.
